Abstract

A drawer is described which comprises side walls, a back wall, a front panel and a drawer bottom. In order, for transport purposes, to reduce the amount of room which the drawer takes up, it is provided that the drawer side walls and the back wall are coupled in a hinge-like manner to the drawer bottom and that the front panel is detachably connected to said parts. There is provided on the drawer bottom a downward-directed projection which engages in an open groove of a side wall or of the back wall and fills the groove force-lockingly in the manner of an initial tension, the groove having an inward-directed hook-like projection and an opening through which the projection of the drawer bottom engages. Front panel connectors are additionally provided on the side walls for connection to the front panel.
